Yup…having to deal with. I added to my previous post. The number of eggs she produces has to do with diet and temperatures and other husbandry issues.

As @Beman has said…”Per females. THis is the info I give everyone. NOTE if you have a receptive/gravid female I WOULD NOT do an extreme reduction in food intake depending on how much you are currently feeding. THis can be harmful when they are in the process of allready developing eggs.”…exactly...

You said…”Nooo. The chameleon in the smaller cage isba 2 month old female. We completely covered her cage”…even though the cage is covered, I would move it away from the other chameleon if I could…she may be sensing the other female. This might be of interest to you and explain a bit…...

@JacksJill might have some advice for you.

It’s called a “nictitating membrane” I believe.

Hope your chameleon isn’t eggbound. Part of what can push them to egg binding is overfeeding as they approach sexual maturity and temperatures that are too hot. Can you give us information on how much you’re feeding her and the temperature she is kept at? The substrate in your lay bin looks...

Photos of the chameleons that are having the health issues might help.

“The Chameleon is mainly distributed around the Mediterranean. It is present in the south of the Iberian Peninsula, Sicily, Malta, Greece and certain Mediterranean islands, presumably the result of ancient introductions. In Morocco it is widely distributed and occupies almost all the bioclimatic...

I don’t know…never did a study on it. All I can say is that I didn’t find any problems using my (Ontario Canadian) water for them when it was left out overnight like that. Using this as just one example…my veiled females almost always lived to be 6 or 7 years old..so I think I would have seen...

@ChameleonBoy26 …this might help…this is what I used to do…”Another chlorine removal technique is to leave your drinking water sitting at room temperature. While this process can also take 24 hours or more, it can sometimes be faster than putting your water in the fridge.”…...

“At least one of the mosquito bites appears to have induced a localized melanic color change, emanating radially from where the proboscis pierced the chameleon’s skin.”… https://par.nsf.gov/servlets/purl/10545422

I don’t remember…it was a long time ago now and I don’t have my records handy right now. I think the virus needs to be studied more to find out if there’s a reason it would shorten their lives if it happens in panther chameleons. There may even be more than one form of the virus like happens in...

So sorry for your loss. It’s hard when we lose them and all we can do is keep memories of them in our hearts. HUGS. Although it’s been said that these papillomas are basically a wart, over all my years of keeping chameleons, the couple I had that got it did live shorter lives than normal and I...

“A historical overview of documented occurrence of chameleon twins, triplets and quadruplets and their life history is presented, with reports on the first documented twins in Calumma parsonii parsonii (CUVIER, 1852) and Trioceros laterispinis (LOVERIDGE, 1932); second documented triplets in...

They look beautiful!

You’ve done well to get him to that age!

“This case study suggests the possibility that species of Isospora might not always cause disease because the animal that shed these oocysts showed no symptoms for more than two months.”… https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8437735/

You asked…”What made you suspect worms in its eye to begin with?”…it was along long time ago. I remember the eye globe/lid being swollen huge and I think someone who saw it said it could be from a parasite.
